On Thursday, Charlotte's mayor, Jennifer Robers, and Police Chief Kerr Putney gave an update to media, saying video of Keith Scott's shooting would not immediately be released to the public.

Protests in Charlotte first erupted Tuesday night, after police shot and killed 43-year-old Keith Scott. Police shut down a major interstate, and protesters set a fire to and vandalized police vehicles.
